What is Helium?

Helium is a wireless network that makes it possible for Internet of Things (IoT) devices to communicate with each other and with the internet. It uses a proprietary technology called LongFi, which lets devices communicate over long distances. It is powered by its native coin HNT, which is used to reward users on the network.

How does Helium work?

It works using LongFi, a unique technology that allows IoT devices to communicate over long distances. The Helium network comprises hotspots, which act as wireless access points and let devices connect to the internet without the need for expensive Wi-Fi infrastructure.

How is the Helium network secured?

The Helium network is secured by the blockchain it runs on. It uses a proof of coverage consensus algorithm (PoC). Users running hotspots on the network are incentivised to provide coverage to other users by earning HNT tokens for each block they mine.

The PoC algorithm helps make sure that hotspot providers are reliable and cannot dominate the network.

What is Helium used for?

The Helium platform’s main use is to provide a low-cost and low-power network for IoT devices and applications. Some real-world uses of the platform include tracking devices, environmental sensors, and other connected devices.

Why does HNT have value?

HNT is used as the native token for the Helium network and is used as an incentive to reward user participation. Users can earn HNT for providing hot spots and coverage. As the Helium network grows and more devices join, the demand and value of HNT will likely increase.

Who created Helium?

Helium was launched in 2019 by Amir Haleem, Shawn Fanning, and Sean Carey. All three founders came from a background in wireless networking, IoT, and blockchain technology. Helium received backing early on from investors such as Union Square Ventures.

Where can I buy Helium?

You can buy Helium on a crypto exchange. An exchange is a marketplace that allows you to sign up, deposit your money, and buy some crypto, just as you would with a stock platform.

Most cryptocurrency brokers allow you to keep the coins you buy in your account. However, you may want to sign up for a dedicated crypto wallet for some extra security.

Are there any other ways to invest in Helium?

The simplest way to invest in Helium is to buy it outright. However, another option is to simply open a crypto account. Crypto accounts are like regular bank accounts and allow you to store a variety of currencies, send and receive payments, earn interest on savings, and spend freely with a credit card.

You can also invest in crypto more generally through a crypto ETF or a crypto fund. These are financial instruments that give you exposure to a group of leading cryptocurrencies, more suited to high net worth individuals.

Are there any Helium alternatives?

The Internet of Things is a popular market with many crypto projects offering platforms within the area. Here is a selection of a few of the best alternatives to Helium.
